Abstract

Introduction: This study aimed to determine nursing students’ attitudes and behaviors toward person centered perioperative care and to examine whether these attitudes differ across sociodemographic variables. Material and Methods: This descriptive and cross-sectional study was conducted in 2024 with 303 nursing students enrolled in a faculty of health sciences. Data were collected using the “Person Centered Perioperative Nursing Scale” and a demographic questionnaire. Independent-samples t-tests and one-way ANOVAs were used for statistical analyses. Results: The mean age of the participants was 21.20±1.66, and 72.3% were female. The mean total scale score was 86.13±10.42, indicating generally positive attitudes toward person-centered perioperative care. No significant differences were found according to gender, willingness to choose the profession, or having a nurse in the family (p>0.05). However, significant differences were observed across class levels in the total, Respect, and expertise subscales (p<0.05). The reason for choosing the nursing profession also revealed significant differences in total and all subscale scores (p<0.001). Conclusion: Findings indicate that nursing students have positive attitudes toward person-centered perioperative care, and these attitudes are associated with clinical experience and professional motivation. Based on these findings, it is recommended that the concept of person-centered perioperative care be strengthened in nursing education and that students be supported during clinical practice in terms of patient communication, empathy, Respect, information sharing, and professional care behaviors.

Özet

Giriş: Bu araştırma, hemşirelik öğrencilerinin birey merkezli perioperatif bakıma ilişkin tutum ve davranışlarını belirlemek ve bu tutumların bazı sosyodemografik değişkenlere göre farklılık gösterip göstermediğini incelemek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Materyal ve Metodlar: Tanımlayıcı ve kesitsel nitelikteki araştırmaya 2024 yılında bir sağlık bilimleri fakültesinde öğrenim gören 303 hemşirelik öğrencisi katılmıştır. Veriler, “Birey Merkezli Perioperatif Hemşirelik Ölçeği” ve sosyodemografik özellikleri içeren anket formu ile toplanmıştır. Veriler bağımsız örneklem t-testi ve tek yönlü varyans analizi (ANOVA) ile değerlendirilmiştir. Bulgular: Öğrencilerin yaş ortalaması 21,20±1,66 olup, %72,3’ü kadındır. Ölçek toplam puanı 86,13±10,42 olarak bulunmuş ve öğrencilerin birey merkezli bakım tutumlarının genel olarak olumlu olduğu belirlenmiştir. Cinsiyet, mesleği isteyerek seçme ve ailede hemşire bulunma durumuna göre anlamlı fark saptanmamıştır (p>0,05). Sınıf düzeyine göre toplam, saygı ve uzmanlık alt boyutlarında anlamlı fark bulunmuştur (p<0,05). Mesleği seçme nedenine göre ise ölçek toplam puanı ve tüm alt boyutlarda anlamlı farklılık saptanmıştır (p<0,001). Sonuç: Araştırma bulguları, hemşirelik öğrencilerinin birey merkezli perioperatif bakıma yönelik tutumlarının olumlu olduğunu ve bu tutumun klinik deneyim ve meslek seçme motivasyonu ile ilişkili olduğunu göstermektedir. Bu sonuçlar doğrultusunda, hemşirelik eğitiminde birey merkezli perioperatif bakım anlayışının güçlendirilmesi; öğrencilerin klinik uygulama sürecinde hasta ile iletişim, empati, saygı, bilgi paylaşımı ve profesyonel bakım davranışları yönünden desteklenmesi önerilmektedir.
